I saw a lot of butterflies over the last few days. They are so beautiful and graceful. Here is a simple poem I wrote while reflecting on the butterfly.

Beauty and colour
Wings to fly
Delicate and light
Up so highNo more crawling
Out of the cocoon
Brand new life
The old is a tombFree to float
Carried by wind
Gentle flutter
Freedom begins
Off to explore
Curiosity beckons
Nothing mundane
Thankful, good heavens
The past is gone
A distant memory
Dark cold days
Felt like a cemetery
Now there’s light
Fresh air abounds
Breath it all in
Hear the sounds
Life is a gift
A moment to breathe
Take it all in
Before you must leave
A wonderful world
Amazing universe
A plethora of life
All so diverse
Feel the joy
Embrace the delight
Share the love
Be the light
Butterfly
